FireWxPy 1.6.1

Thank you for using FireWxPy! Here is what is in our latest version:

New Editions for FireWxPy Version 1.6.1:

  1. Predictive Services Fuels Charts (BETA)

    • Uses the fuels data from the new USFS/FEMS Database
    • 100hr Dead Fuel Moisture
    • 1000hr Dead Fuel Moisture
    • Energy Release Component (ERC)
    • Burning Index (BI)
    • Spread Component (SC)
    • Ignition Component (IC)
    • BETA status since the FEMS database is still being worked on. (There could be hiccups but that is on FEMS end - not FireWxPy's end).
  2. Global Models (GFS/GEFS)

    • New International Regions to improve useability for international users.

    Regions supported/Syntax:
